Jeez we just have nothing in way of middles. I think the kikau to prop idea needs to be explored. Hes too un-involved out wide and wont get any opportunities off the back of our current halfs. Get him in the middle to get dirty and work rate up. Really need a big body and he is it

I'd go a few different ways myself but I think Ciraldo will go very close to the above

1. Connor Tracey
2. Jacob Kiraz
3. Bronson Xerri
4. Stephen Crichton
5. Foxx

6. Matt Burton
7. Blake Taaffe (IMO, he will kill it at 7 - our secret weapon)

8. Max King
9. Reed Mahoney
10. Addin Fonua-Blake - (Hoping & Praying)
11. Villiame Kikau
12. Jacob Preston
13. Josh Curran

14. Kurt Mann
15. Harrison Edwards
16. Liam Knight
17. Samuel Hughes

18. Drew Hutchison

19. Toby Sexton
20. Blake Wilson
21. Jaeman Salmon
22. Chris Patolo
23. Jake Turpin
24. Ryan Sutton
25. Bailey Biondi-Odo
26. Jeral Skelton
27. Hayze Perham

The following 2 will probably leave
28. RFM
29. Jackson Topine

3. Tracey
4. Mann/Xerri
5. Kiraz
6. Burton
7. Sexton/ Hutchison/ Taafe
8. Max King
9 Mahoney
10 Knight
11. Kiks
12. Preston
13. Curran

14. Salmon
15. Sam Hughes
16. Patolo
17. Sutton


I see Mann starting the year at centre, when/if Xerri finds his feet, he will replace him. We are obviously very light in the Props, also if we have an injury/suspension to one of our edge back rowers who comes in? Salmon looks the only option with NRL experience, unless we move out Curran and put Salmon/Mann at lock...

Does anyone know if Edwards has a contract with us this year?

I’m seeing Sutton way too much on everyones bench. The bloke is as soft as a pancake. Hughes, Morrin, Edwards, Patolo all healthy are ahead of him for mine

He's on good money so you'd think the coach will try to get the best out of him, he wouldn't make my team pay packet aside

What is great to finally see is the huge differences in the teams named. No idea who will make the 17 but whoever it is will be fighting for their spots with decent competition. We are still short a few props but I wouldn’t be surprised if that is rectified before the season kicks off.

I’m surprised taafe is not in a lot of ppls lineup. He is def going to be there somewhere . I reckon he will be in at 1.

He'd be my 3rd string fullback, both Critta and Tracey before him. If injuries maybe he slots in at fullback so less movement in the centre position.
